Lovers in Arms

You, a sweet-like-candy rouse
You pitch a love less true
Just like harlots do
It's snowing all through June
Although I'm the one who's been used
I swear that one thing's true
It's no I never loved
No I never loved
No I never loved like you

We were lovers in arms
Couldn't bear to put each other in harm's way
But we bear arms
We found out the hard way
What these hands can do
Trust me its tried and true
When you command the truth
You deny your troops
I won't lie I do
Mourn my time with you
And I can't lie I do
Carry on
And I can't lie I do
Carry on

Off to the races
Running through mazes
If you drew your gun
I'm afraid they'd try to trace it
To be just like you
To be just like you

When this was on pages
It was just phrases
Flag was half staff
I was praying you would raise it
But I'm not like you
But I'm not like you

We were lovers in arms
Couldn't bear to put each other in harm's way
But we bear arms
We found out the hard way
What these hands can do
Trust me its tried and true
When you command the truth
You deny your troops
I won't lie I do
Mourn my time with you
And I can't lie I do
Carry on
And I can't lie I do
Carry on

And I know we'll raise the flag and go home
And I know June will bring no more snow
(If you want it you should grab it)
(Playing catch with a shooting star we haven't caught it yet)
And I know we'll tap out just like Morse code
(Caveats are welcome, don't you know shooting stars can burn?
Don't get too close)
And I know when you blink we'll erode
(If you want it you should grab it
Playing catch with a shooting star we haven't caught it yet)
We'll erode
We'll erode

(Caveats are welcome, don't you know shooting stars can burn?
Don't get too close)
We'll erode
